JEFFERSON. BUTLER, - PA. What nobler, better ambition can a younr couple have than to live loving:, helpful lives, and then, in a green old age, look back over a life that has been mutually self-sacrificing, useful and successful? The ooe great stumbling-block that stands be tween tnost married couples and this ideal married career is ill health. If both hus band and wife would take proper care of their health, ther. would be more hale, hearty anil happy old people in thf world. If, when a man suffers from the little ills of life, he will resort to I)r fierce's Golden Medical Discowry, the chances are that he will avoid the big and fatal illnesses. This great medicine gives a man a healthy hunger, facilitates the flow of digestive juices, invigorati s the liver, purifies and enriches the blood and builds firm, muscu lar, healthy flesh tissue. It is an old saying that women are hard to kill. There i> truth in this, as far as the majority of illnesses are concerned. There is one cla's of disorders, however, that quickly undermine any woman's gen eral health. No woman can retain her strength who suffers from weakness and disease of the t3< 'icate and important or gans that make wifehood and motherhood possible. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip tion is an unfailing cure for all disorders of this description. It acts directly on the sensitive organs concerned, in a natural, soothing way. It makes them strong, healthy and vigorous. It prepares them to bear the burdens of maternity. It is the greatest of nerve tonics. The woman who uses it will bear healthy, happy child ren, and live to a ripe old age. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets regulate and invigorate the stomach, liver aud bowels. By all medicine dealers.

He has served under the flag in a regi ment of infantry. The late war served also to refresh liis memory concerning the drill regulations and the orders given when a desired movement is to be executed. He was with a friend, also of military experience, when he entered a dairy lunch house in the business dis trict. Long counters run along each side of the room, with a third curved in front in the center. Guests were seated at each of the counters busily disposing of food. The two friends moved down to the counter to the east, fronted bv the piano stool accompaniment. They were about to take seats when a sound smote their ears which caused the soldier to perform like a trick monkey. One of the waiters shouted out instructions to the cook in the rear. The words jumbled and this Is what they sounded to the soldier: "Guides —posts!" Hearing this the soldier backed from the counter, faced to the right and walked rapidly to the end nearest the door. Here he took position and care fully gazed along the line of feeders. His friend, realizing that an instinctive military sense had moved the man, went after him. "What the dickens are you doing, Bill?" asked the friend. "This is no barracks nor parade; it's a hash foun dry. Don't make a spectacle of your self. Back with you." "Didn't that fellow yell 'Guides— posts?'" queried the man in a dazed manner. "Queer how you soldiers think every thing is for you," was the reply. "He yelled 'Dry toast,' if you must know." — Chicago Chronicle. John Gel* Ahead. "John," she asked, cuddling up to him—for it was the seventh anniversary of their marriage—"what was the hap piest moment of your life?" "Ahj dear," he replied, "I remember it well. I shall never forget it. If I live to be a hundred years old that moment will always stand out as plainly as it does to-night." She sighed and nestled a little closer, looking longingly up into his honest blue eyes. After a moment's silence, she urged: "Yes, but, John, dearest, you haven't told me when it was." "Oh," he answered, "I thought you had guessed it. Surely, it ought to be easy enough for you to do so. It was when you came to me last fall, if you remember, and told me that you had de cided to trim over one of your old hats so as to make it do for the winter." Then the celebration of the seventh an niversary of their marriage became for mal and uninteresting.—Keystone. JliilloofiM for the Dead.

TRACK AND ROAD HORSES [A SPECIALTY. TO PLATE THE DEAD. Scientists Propose to Cover Corpses with Metals. In Whlcb Condition They Will Keep Forever The I'rocen Said lit Be Superior to the Present Method of EmbalnlDg. Among the topics constantly agitat ing social and sanitary experts are the difficulties of urban sepulture. The largest cities no longer tolerate burial cemeteries within their limits. The ex pense and trouble that this prohibition involves have given rise to the alterna tive ideas of incineration and other similar methods for the disposition of the dead. So niawiy details of the pres ent way of conducting funerals have been developed by the progressive spirit of the times that it is no wonder that in this peculiar field also there should be an application of scientific elements. Evidences found by delvers into the extant relics of the past of the pro fiency the ancients attained in the process of embalming have encouraged modern attempts at the preservation of the dead. Some of these are mere temporary expedients to keep the body for a brief time before burial. Others attempt to make the preservation per manent. A qualified success in this di rection has led to the assertion that the lost art of embalming has been rediscovered. This is the ng-e of electrical wonders. The area of human affairs into which the mysterious current does not run and revolutionize existing conditions is practically unknown. The domain of the "great majority" i 9 its latest field of operation. A scientist of most advanced elec trical ideas, who recently returned from Europe, is the advocate at an applica tion of electrical methods for the pres ervation of the dead. He holds that his experiments prove it not pnly en tirely practical, but the genuine end of the age system of permanent embalm ing. He has been a laborious student of Egyptology, and is familiar with all the discoveries made in the disinte grating of the mummies from their an cient coverings. During- a stay in Koine he visited the famous cemetery of the Capuchins, un der the church of that order, in the Piazza de Cappuccini. Here the vaults contain tombs with earth from Jeru salem. When new interments are to bo made the bones longest undisturbed in these vaults are taken out. From these the most g-hastly decorations for the walls and roofs have been fash ioned. While lookingat tlieerumblicg remains of the 4,000 departed monks lined up against the wall it occurred tQ him that if bodies were only treated to the electrical process by which they could be incased in a metallic surface they would thus be preserved intact and lifelike for all time. Experiments followed, which the sci entist regards as highly satisfactory. To those unfamiliar with the process of electrotyping it may be said that to have a thin film of metal deposited on the entire surface it is first covered with plumbago —more familiar to unscien tific ken in stove polisji. Then with an acid bath and the electric current the transfer is effected. Ordinary metallic platings of table wate and other articles of familiar use are common enough, but experiments had to show that the idea was also ap plicable to other substances. Meats and vegetable fibers were so treated to his satisfaction, and then he advanced to his embalming theory. In this the ljody is prepared for the ordinary embalming. The viscera are removed and the preservative liquid is injected into the veins. A coating of metal applied by the electro-plating process then hermetically incases the whole frame and it is preesrved intact forever. In this outer shell gold, silver, copper or nickel could be used to suit the purse and fancy of those having the em balmment done. With it coffins and caskets could be done away with. A man could perpetuate himself in endur ing brass or more precious metals. The Charles Surfaces of the future who have to raise money on their own '•flesh and blood" could transmit to the Sir Olivers securities that had intrinsic us well as artistic values. -Chicago Journal. Tbc De Lone Incident. A letter from Senor Uupuy de Lome, dated December 25, 1597, and addressed to Senor Canalejas, has been stolen in Havana by some one in the Cuban inter est, and sent to the Cuban junta in New York, which gave it to the press on February 9, IS9B. This a coarse and vulgar attack upon Presi dent McKinley, which led to the imme diate resignation and recall of the writer, who had served Spain well and unscrupulously. but far more im portant in its wider bearings than this disclosure of the character of Dupuy de Lome was the fact that the letterre vtaled the utter hollowness of all the Spanish professions, and showed that the negotiations in regard to autonomy and commercial relations were only r in tended to amuse and deceive the United States. The effect of this revelation was just beginning to make itself felt when the American people were stunned by an event which drove every thing else from their minds. —Hon.

This will be your month at our store. If you need Shoes or Rubbers, you can have things pretty much your own way. We have too many goods in the house, and just a short month to sell them —we must reduce our stock; there is no other way ont of it. Our spring goods will be here March Ist, and this sale is to empty our shelves of winter footwear AT ANY PRICE to make room for new goods. We Want to be Understood We are not in business for our health, and it is not often we sell shoes without profit. This is one of the times we do, and we consider it good policy to close out all our winter goods even if we do so at a loss. We then get the much-needed room and can buy an entire new stock in the fall. Our Prices This (Month Will be Record I}recl<ers. We cannot go into detail regarding prices, but we promise ycu to meet and better any prices you cm get in Butler. Sole agent in Butler County for The Delsarte Shoe The SeST $3.50 Shoe on <?<arth.

When our grandfathers a hunting went. In the long ago, they took down, from it» peg on the wall, :t gun of no mean dimen sions. long of barrel and strong of stock. Over o.ie shoulder was thrown tne polished powder horn, ;u*«l over the other the buck skin bullet pouch embroidered in fancy worsted by the good man's wife. Then the Hint was carefully tested against good steel that it might, without fail, strike fire, when the hunter took aim and pulled trigger on the bounding buck. And in those same days came a wonderful invention of picture taking and with much pain and suffering our grandfathers, in stiir storks and with face chalked, "looked pleas ant" for full twenty minutes together, that we, their defendants, might see their featur es in little plushed lined cases, gay with brass trimmings. AND TO DAY! We defy the very el ements we use. The crack of the sports man's rifle is no longer abcompanied by a puff of smoke. The photographer is no long er obliged to seek the dark room when re loading his camera. The nitrous cartridge has removed [lie Smoke nuisance"; the Film cartridge has done away with the dark room.
